Explanation of number 8640 Prime Factorization

Prime Factorization of 8640 it is expressing 8640 as the product of prime factors. In other words it is finding which prime numbers should be multiplied together to make 8640.

Since number 8640 is a Composite number (not Prime) we can do its Prime Factorization.

To get a list of all Prime Factors of 8640, we have to iteratively divide 8640 by the smallest prime number possible until the result equals 1.

Here is the complete solution of finding Prime Factors of 8640:

The smallest Prime Number which can divide 8640 without a remainder is 2. So the first calculation step would look like:

8640 ÷ 2 = 4320

Now we repeat this action until the result equals 1:

4320 ÷ 2 = 2160

2160 ÷ 2 = 1080

1080 ÷ 2 = 540

540 ÷ 2 = 270

270 ÷ 2 = 135

135 ÷ 3 = 45

45 ÷ 3 = 15

15 ÷ 3 = 5

5 ÷ 5 = 1

Now we have all the Prime Factors for number 8640. It is: 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 5

Or you may also write it in exponential form: 26 × 33 × 5
